2209 14A Street SW
Some history of 2209 14A Street SW
In 1905, even long before construction on this house began, a Restrictive Covenant was placed on this house that it “could not be used as house of ill-repute”.
A quick read of Melissa Moloy’s article “Booze, boys and brothels – the real early Calgary” shows why that was necessary.
It may also explain why the first five early residents were listed only as men.
Daniel Harrigan is listed as owner in 1912.
P.J. Daly as owner in 1913.
First 5 residents:
• 1912-1913: John f. Eastwood. Real estate.
• 1915-1929: Albert Newman –chief clerk Reg. Br. Dept of Natural Resources, CPR
• 1930-1930: Thos J. Williams- Salesman, Bruce Robinson Elec.
• 1931-1931: Fred M. McNeil- Inspector Grain Insurance commission
• 1932+- William C. Jack, retired.
